MGM Terrace Suite

Has anyone been comped a terrace suite at MGM? My host is requesting this for us and reading about it, it almost seems too good to be true. I always worry that even though they say it's comped that it won't be at the end. Thank you!

Yes, I've stayed there comped twice. Be aware, that not all of the terraces look like the ones in the picture. On my first stay, my terrace was much smaller than the pictures, no table, no TV, which was just fine for me as I was solo. Second stay it looked just like the pictures. I typically go from Sunday to Wednesday, so haven't been bumped. They do have a very limited number of these - so going during the week is probably the best time to not get bumped.

In fact it was kind of funny, because my second trip I requested the city view penthouse, and when I got there - they had bumped me up to one of the marquis suites. I didn't want that so was willing to be downgraded to a smaller suite, but instead got bumped up to the terrace suite again.

It was nice. Negatives for me (I sound like a suite snob ). The temps are a little hard to regulate in the suite. It takes you a while to figure out where all of the controls for lights, drapes, etc., because they are everywhere. I personally didn't really care for a 2 level suite. Whatever I was looking for, inevitably was not on the level I was on. Marble staircase. I'm not the most graceful creature on the earth, and I had visions of myself tripping and falling down the stairs and crashing through the window at the bottom. Needless to say I didn't drink much on those trips . I personally prefer the terrace suites at the Cosmo because I love having the kitchen. The MGM terrace suite does not have a fridge. Here is my trip report from the first trip with pictures.

The Penthouse City View suite at MGM is a tough booking because there's only 16 of them. It's easy to get bumped out of because it's a good value, not really overpriced even at rack rate, so I think they have a lot of full price bookings.

I don't have much to add beyond Josie's review. I would emphasize the part about termperature control, though. I went in the summer and it was impossible to keep the suite cool. But its a great suite for groups and parties
